Kaka pens bumper contract
Friday 14 September, 2007
It is rumoured Milan have agreed to give Kaka a new contract worth £5.5m per season to stave off Real Madrid’s advances.
The Brazilian rejected an offer to almost triple his wages – currently at £3.7m – if he went to the Bernabeu this summer and will be rewarded for his loyalty.
The ‘Corriere dello Sport’ claims that a new agreement has been drawn up to give ‘Ricky’ £5.5m per season until 2011, although an extension to 2012 is on the cards.
“Kaka deserves a pay rise, so we will happily give that to him,†commented President Silvio Berlusconi after the European Super Cup victory.
“We have to be careful, though, as there has to be a balance within the club and locker room for all the players.â€
Kaka has earned himself the right to be an exception after his exploits over the past 12 months for the Rossoneri.
Top scorer in the Champions League, UEFA’s Player of the Tournament and front-runner for the Ballon d’Or and FIFA World Player of the Year awards, he is widely considered to be the greatest player in circulation right now.
He has had a splendid start to the new campaign as well, scoring five goals in six official games between Milan and Brazil.
